No, it's not too early to line up Recs for Bama. Yes, it's too early to actually send them to the chapters. The typical time frame for Recs to start arriving is in May.

Some chapters might not have even installed their new officers for the coming year yet. You would hate to have your Rec get lost or not passed on to the new officer in charge of Recs.

Far more importantly though, chapters want your final cummulative HS GPA. Obviously that's not going to be known and an official transcript available until after your graduation.

Instead I suggest you have your Rec writers email the Recruitment chair of their chapter letting them know about you. This will get you on a chapter's "radar". That will hopefully translate into invitations to the Spring Teas, Panhellenic Preview Weekend get togethers, etc.
